which had been ruthlessly shorn, and
for which the tonsorial artist ex
pects there will be a brisk demand as
soon as Tom's friends learn of it.

The viilage treasurer, Mr. Brooks,
adopted a method of paying off
orders as soon as he assumed his

method: "A act to amend section
1219 of the general statutes of 1894,
providing for duties of village officers
and payment of orders was passed by
the last legislature, and reads: All
village orders shall be paid in the
order that they are now or may here
after be registered, out of the first
moneys that come into the village
treasurer's hands for such norpose."

A PROPOSITION IS MADE. CHIPPEWA TIMBER SALES
made a proposition to the
Grand Forks Lumber company
in regard to rebuilding their
saw mill, which was recently de
stroyed by fire at East Grand
Porks.
This mill would be a most im
portant addition to Bemidji's in
dustrial interests, and would
mean the distribution of some
$20,000 monthly among our mer
chants, and quite an addition to
our population.
